Yas Marina Blue vs Silverstone - which color looks better on the F80 M3?
Yas Marina Blue vs Silverstone? Which color looks better on F80 M3.
I currently have Yas Marina Blue M3 and love it, but saw Silverstone at the dealer and really liked it as well. Took some pics with the iPhone, but my Blue car was a bit dirty. To me the Silverstone seems to show the aggressive lines of M3 better. What do you think?

Between the two - SS gets my vote.
Yas Marina is nice, but it's a bit too soft blue for my taste. My wife also states that Yas Marina is a "feminine" colour and that she'd get it in that colour if she ever got an M3/M4. It's nice, but SS just looks so damned classy and what not. It's understated, but it's the colour I would've gotten if I opted not to go for an individual paint on my M3.

Thanks for all replies so far. I'm looking to get a 2018 M3 with competition package, so even the blue car would be with all black grills, and black wheels and stuff.

Do you ever get compliments about the color? With my YMB I constantly get compliments. I'm just worried that with SS it will be just another silver car. But do really like it, and really like the aspect of how the color changes plus how it shows the lines of M3.

Blue is my favorite car color, but I could never fall in love with YMB, so of the two Silverstone would be my choice. It really does show the lines of the car off very well. The first M3 I ever saw in person was Silverstone and the color made a strong impression on me specifically because the car looked so aggressive.

SS for me. The contrasting bits (roof, headlights, etc) make it pop even more. Plus so easy to maintain. Best F80 color (non-individual) in my view.
